Truth is preferable in matters where being incorrect can lead to harm.
Absolutely "know you have none". Being blindsided when the time comes would be way worse than being able to be mentally prepared prior.
The latter. Why would anyone want the former?
Too stressed/overwhelmed/in danger to process the perceived loss of accepting the latter and facing starting from nothing. When there is seemingly nowhere to flee and you cannot 'pick your battles', you may choose not to think about some of them until they are fully in your face. It can be a way of coping when things have become Mr Bones' Wild Ride.
know i have none. id know to limit my exposure, whether emotionally, physically, mentally etc.
If someone were to tell me they’d prefer to be mistaken—about anything—I wouldn’t really know what to make of it.
i'd prefer to be mistaken about most of my predictions for the future
That’s a bit of wordplay: You’re not mistaken about what your predictions are, you just hope the predictions are wrong
Why do you ask, are you trying to sell me insurance?
Either way I don't have any support so the answer is no I don't want to be lied to and anticipate support I won't get
Live in delusions or ask what is to be done?
I always want to know the truth, so, that.
Know I have none, better to adjust then
